Michter’s US*1 Small Batch Unblended American Whiskey

$114.99

700ml

The Michter’s “US*1” bottlings are so named to honor Michter’s heritage harkening back to America’s first whiskey company. Washington and his troops drank Michter’s while they were hunkered down in Valley Forge.

Unlike Bourbon or Rye, which, by definition, must be aged in new oak barrels, US*1 unblended whiskey is aged in a way that utilises second-use bourbon barrels to achieve a distinctive flavour profile. In late 2013, Master Distiller Willie Pratt agreed to re-release this specialty after a nearly three-year absence from the market, deeming it “just right” and “the best it’s ever been.” No neutral grain spirits are included in this blend.
